Chapter 35 The Selection of Sect Disciples
I had a good rest for a night, but before he could get up the next day, a quarrel began to start downstairs.
When he walked to the door and looked down, he was startled. The inn, which originally had not many people, was now crowded with people in Wuyang.
The noisy sound made him unable to hear what these people were saying.
It seems that some of them are together, and some of them are the same.
"What's going on with the downstairs of my younger brother? Why are there so many people today?" When he saw the waiter coming up, Su Chen stopped him and asked.
"Hey, young master, you came so early. Didn't you come to the emperor to participate in the annual selection of disciples of the sect?!" The waiter seemed very surprised that he didn't know about this.
"There is still this?" I didn't expect that I just heard Duan Fei say that I met it today.
"Young Master, the selection of disciples of this sect is a chance to soar to the sky. The rich lord came to the imperial capital early to wait. Those who don't have much money can only step on the spot. After all, in addition to the low-grade soul stone selection, they have to live in the imperial capital for a few days. Many people even have a hard time repaying the low-grade soul stone. Just like today, if they go to exchange it, it will cost 600 taels per piece, which is only a little over 500." The waiter shook his head, as if he was a little moved, and the wisdom of these vendors in the imperial capital.
Six hundred?!
When Su Chen heard the other party say that, he suddenly felt cheated. As for the exchange, he only exchanged one for five hundred taels.
Walking down the stairs, the people below were talking a lot, but the topic was nothing more than a sigh that the lower-grade soul stones became more expensive, and the choice of the sect.
He went out directly and watched the crowds keep walking towards the center of the city. Everyone was tilting their necks, placing their feet while walking. He didn't need to ask to know where the selection should be.
He walked out of the inn with one foot, and he followed the crowd and walked forward.
The crowd was filled with shoulders, just like the temple fair that Su Chen saw in a secular town when he was a child, and everyone's face was filled with joy and expectation.
As he moved forward, he came to the center of the imperial capital with the crowd. This place was originally a huge square, but now there have been many arenas, each with a soul-testing stone like the Su family.
There is also a circular ring in the center of the square, but although there is a soul test stone placed on this ring, it is a fee test. In addition to a low-grade soul stone, there is also an additional one. Because it was placed by the court, other people who came to the test were just talking in private.
However, there is also an advantage of charging tests, which is that after the test, the court will record the test results for you and then write a letter of recommendation for the test results.
The recommendation letter clearly states your soul power and attributes. After that, you can go to any sect, just present the recommendation letter.
After all, there are differences between sects. Some sects have lower basic selection than others. The better the sect, the higher the requirements. If some people have high soul abilities, but go to a sect with low requirements. Once they are tested there, you can't have any other choices, so many people still charge for testing. After all, if their soul abilities are higher than the sect requirements, they will feel very disadvantageous.
After coming to the square, the crowd seemed to have been dispersed. Before coming, many people had already had the sect they chose in their hearts. As soon as they arrived, they went to the sect. Most of these people only got a low-grade soul stone, so they could only make this choice. Those who were a little richer had more than two, so they went to the charging test area in the middle.
He walked around casually and looked at several sects who were testing souls in 6th. After watching several sects in a row, most of them did not meet the basic standards. Among the ten people, they would not pass one or two. Moreover, he looked at several sects with the lowest requirements.
After walking around the square, he already knew something in his mind. The requirements for sects to start basically require soul power, above the third floor, while better sects occupy more than the fourth floor, and they saw it. They had visited the Wuding Sect and Tianxuan Sect of the Su family before. Unlike the Su family before, their requirements have become much lower. However, Su Chen could think that most of these people would be at the bottom of the sect after entering. It would be difficult to make a comeback. So some of them who had just reached the fourth level of soul ability, and they would hesitate whether to go to the big sect. After all, in some small sects, they were already considered to be above the middle level.
Just as he was about to look at the central fee test to see the situation, a burst of cheers suddenly came from behind him. He quickly looked back and found that someone had tested his soul abilities on the fifth floor.
It’s a pity that he was testing a small sect. Although everyone outside was cheering for him, he still had a hint of regret on his face.
In this case, in the next two days, 6 will appear in this square. Many people will be selected by sects here, but more people will still go home lonely. Some people will even have to piece together and borrow money from the lower-grade soul stone after returning.
In Su Chen's opinion, this was a gamble, and it was a gamble with a very slim chance of winning, but many people still gritted their teeth to bet on that slim chance.
Seeing others soaring into the sky, and I can only spend my rest of my life in the world, when I came in, the expectations and joy on many people's faces had turned into regret and disappointment.
But those selected were extremely happy on their faces. At least they still had the chance to become soul war masters. Even if they became the lowest level soul war masters, they could still hunt strange beasts in a forest. This low-grade soul stone is equivalent to their stepping stone. In the eyes of others, this gamble in life is tantamount to the winners of success.
When I arrived at the city center of the charging station, I saw many people walking out with a piece of tissue paper in their hands, and there was a red stamp on them. Like those who were testing at the sect, their faces were also filled with joy and loss.
"That's great, I'm on the fifth floor!!!" As another person finished the test, he shouted excitedly and ran towards the place where the letter of recommendation was issued.
Originally, the person who had the recommendation letter before gave the person in front of him a cold face was only three levels. When he saw that the person coming was five levels, his face immediately filled with smiles, and he didn't have to think about the other party. He would definitely be a soul master in the future, so he still had to smile with these people.
"Su Chen!"
At this moment, a familiar voice came to Su Chen's ears. He turned around and looked at him, but he did not see the other person.
